Phase change mark simulator is investigated. Nucleation, crystal growth, and re-crystallization at amorphous/crystal boundary are taken into consideration. Crystallization is evaluated with 3-dimensional thermal analysis. Mark shapes of experiments and simulation are in good agreement. Amorphous mark forming process was analyzed with the simulator.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
